When employees love what they do, magic happens, leading to lower turnover and a cohesive team ready to tackle challenges. Nancy McGaw launched Aspen’s First Movers Fellowship Program in 2009 to support business innovators, and her book "Making Work Matter" shares their stories and offers guidance for creating meaningful work. In this episode, Nancy teaches how to find opportunities within a company for innovation, the importance of allies, and the role of management in empowering employees. Recognizing and appreciating employees' contributions fosters a positive work culture and enhances engagement.

About Turning The Corner HR


The world of work is more complicated than ever, and traditional HR has struggled to keep pace. When it comes to creating and sustaining healthy, thriving cultures, small businesses suffer the most.


Turning the Corner is the remedy. Today’s high-tech, low-touch, cookie-cutter approaches simply don’t work for small businesses. Experience, judgment, and relationships have been replaced by technology in the name of efficiency with disastrous results. At Turning the Corner, we understand your challenges are as unique as the company itself. We design personalized HR approaches that work for you.


Only after listening, learning, and diagnosing the underlying root causes do we provide recommendations and solutions to help you alleviate your chronic (systemic) HR pain so you can finally move forward.
